The recipe for vinaigrette of baked vegetables with sauerkraut is simple, but not boring. Now most often this salad consists of beets, potatoes, pickles and carrots, but with sauerkraut it is even tastier . The name "vinaigrette" itself came from France: this is what (vinaigre) is called a salad dressing made from mustard, olive oil and vinegar. And in Russia, the traditional Provencal sauce became a salad - perhaps due to the insufficient understanding of the French language and culinary techniques by Russian cooks of the 18th century.
